No campus cleaning allowed, managers told

Striking workers at a college campus in southern Newfoundland are vowing to halt management from cleaning the facility.

Garbage has been piling up at the College of the North Atlantic campus in Burin since November, when about 15 workers started a strike. The workers are represented by the Newfoundland and Labrador Association of Public and Private Employees (NAPE).

The employees work for the Burin-Marystown Community Training Employment Board, and support developmentally delayed adults who clean the CNA campus.

Last month, students complained that the campus was becoming filthy because of the lack of cleaning.

The Newfoundland and Labrador government assigned two managers from the transportation department to do the cleaning.

The strikers say they will not let the managers into the campus anymore.
